Kinetic modeling of a high power fast-axial-flow CO2 laser with computational fluid dynamics method

A new computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method for the simulation of fast-axial-flow CO2 laser is developed.The model which is solved by CFD software uses a set of dynamic differential equations to describe the dynamic process in one discharge tube.The velocity,temperature,pressure and turbulence energy distributions in discharge passage are presented.There is a good agreement between the theoretical prediction and the experimental results.This result indicates that the parameters of the laser have significant effect on the flow distribution in the discharge passage.It is helpful to optimize the output of high power CO2 laser by mastering its kinetic characteristics.

Numerical investigation of a fast-axial-flow CW CO2 laser

This paper presents the results of the calculation of the parameters of the active medium of a fast-axial-flow CO₂ laser using numerical methods in the framework of a one-dimensional approximation of the set of continuity equations, Bernoulli equation, equation of gas state, energy equation and multi-temperature rate equations with regard to diffusion for the gas flow in the cylindrical discharge tube. The spatial distribution of the small-signal gain and gas temperature along the gas flow direction have been calculated for a given set of initial conditions, namely, gas flow velocity, gas pressure and the tube diameter. In addition, the dependence of small-signal gain, the asymmetric stretch vibrational temperature of CO₂ (T₃) and the gas temperature on the discharge current were studied.     

Charge/discharge characteristics of sulfur composite electrode at different temperature and current density in rechargeable lithium batteries

The charge/discharge characteristics of the sulfur composite cathodes were investigated at different temperatures and different current densities. The composite presented the discharge capacities of 854 and 632 mAh g⁻¹ at 60 and −20 °C, respectively, while it had the discharge capacities of 792 mAh g⁻¹ at 25 °C. The composite presented the discharge capacities of 792 and 604 mAh g⁻¹ at 55.6 and 667 mA g⁻¹, respectively, at room temperature. The results showed that the sulfur composite cathodes presented good charge/discharge characteristics between 60 and −20 °C and at a high c-rate up to 667 mA g⁻¹.     

Influence of quantum degeneracy on the performance of a gas Stirling engine cycle

Based on the state equation of an ideal quantum gas, the regenerative loss of a Stirling engine cycle working with an ideal quantum gas is calculated. Thermal efficiency of the cycle is derived. Furthermore, under the condition of quantum degeneracy, several special thermal efficiencies are discussed. Ratios of thermal efficiencies versus the temperature ratio and volume ratio of the cycle are made. It is found that the thermal efficiency of the cycle not only depends on high and low temperatures but also on maximum and minimum volumes. In a classical gas state the thermal efficiency of the cycle is equal to that of the Carnot cycle. In an ideal quantum gas state the thermal efficiency of the cycle is smaller than that of the Carnot cycle. This will be significant for deeper understanding of the gas Stirling engine cycle.

新郑西亚斯东周玉器材料属性与加工工艺的科技分析

中国玉文化源远流长,治玉工艺经过各个时代的不断发展和完善,在一定程度上能反映古代社会生产力发展水平及文化、贸易、技术交流等信息。利用能量色散型X射线荧光光谱（EDXRF）、激光拉曼光谱（LRS）、超景深光学显微系统（OM）等分析技术,结合硅胶覆膜微痕复制技术,对河南省新郑西亚斯东周墓地出土的一批玉器进行科技分析。首先利用化学成分和物相结构分析技术确定了玉器材质的矿物属性,其次利用显微分析技术表征了玉器表面及穿孔内部和印模的加工痕迹,特别是阴刻纹饰和穿孔微痕特征,最后探讨了玉器样品的材料属性和加工工艺两者之间的联系。化学成分和物相结构分析结果表明,所分析的西亚斯东周玉器材质丰富,主要矿物组成有滑石、透闪石、水晶、云母等。玉器表面纹饰微痕特征分析表明,所分析玉器阴刻工艺采用了两种加工工具,分别是砣具和手持硬质工具。穿孔微痕分析特征表明,钻孔包括单面钻孔和双面/多面钻孔两种方式,钻孔工艺则有实心钻、管钻等。部分玉器钻孔形状和内部微痕特征表明,尽管均采用了实心钻工艺,但所采用的实心钻头在形状上存在差异,同时,也存在是否配合解玉砂进行钻孔的差异。不同材料属性的玉器采用了不同的加工工艺。滑石质玉器,莫氏硬度1,器型主要为玉片饰,其表面阴刻纹饰主要采用手持硬质工具进行刻画,钻孔主要采用了双面钻孔方式,并使用了实心钻头未添加解玉砂进行加工,钻头形状可能为圆锥状;云母质玉器,莫氏硬度2~3,器型主要为玉玦片饰,纹饰采用了砣具添加解玉砂的加工工艺,钻孔方式为单面钻孔,采用了管钻工艺。透闪石型玉器,莫氏硬度5~6,器型主要为玉片饰,表面纹饰采用砣具配合解玉砂砣刻,以双面钻孔的方式为主,钻孔工艺为实心钻头配合解玉砂工艺,钻头形状与滑石类样品一致,为圆锥状。水晶质玉器,莫氏硬度7,均为珠饰,表面无纹饰,钻孔方式为双面/多面钻孔,钻孔工艺为实心钻配合解玉砂工艺,且钻头可能为圆柱形。研究结果表明,玉器表面纹饰所采用的阴刻工艺和钻孔工艺,与玉器本身的材料属性、器型等存在密切关系。     

多孔活性自燃金属的光谱辐射特性研究

多孔活性金属材料因为内部存在大量的孔隙,大大地增加了与空气的接触面积,使得其在空气中的燃烧较为猛烈,燃烧温度迅速上升。其燃烧过程属于固体燃烧的范畴,较为复杂。以镁为例,通过建立燃烧模型,来研究多孔活性金属的光谱辐射特性。首先,建立氧气总消耗量与活性金属剩余质量的关系,研究氧气在活性金属孔隙内的扩散浓度关系,通过求解活性金属热平衡方程得到活性金属燃烧过程中温度与时间的关系式,进而得到活性金属的峰值光谱辐射强度表达式;然后,将模型计算的仿真结果与红外热像仪测得的实验结果对比,结果表明,模型的计算结果与实验结果相一致,误差在了10%以内;最后,通过建立的燃烧模型来研究活性金属燃烧规律以及其光谱辐射特性,解决了高空、高速下的活性金属光谱辐射强度难以实验获得的问题,大大减小了实验成本与时间。分别对比不同时间活性金属箔片在1～3,3～5以及8～12 μm波段下的辐射强度,得出活性金属燃烧时的辐射强度主要集中在3～5 μm波段的结论。研究结果表明：自燃金属最大燃烧温度随高度的增加逐渐下降,随气流速度的增加先增加后减小,在速度为30 m·s-1时,温度达到最大;自燃金属的光谱辐射强度在2～6 μm波段达到最大。该模型也可以用来研究其他活性金属的燃烧特性。
